92102916 REV 5 8. CALIBRATION
The purpose of calibration is to set the WTMD's operating characteristics to meet
the required security level. The calibration is done before the introduction of the
WTMD at the security check point. Before calibration the detection requirements
have to be determined i.e. what are the most likely threat objects. The reference
objects representative of the threat level should be selected for the calibration of
the WTMD.
Before commencing calibration
Start the calibration of the equipment by choosing a suitable operating frequency.
This means selecting the frequency that gives enough low background interference
level.
1. Make sure that the metal detector is installed according to the instructions in
this manual.
2. Make sure that you are not wearing any articles of clothing that contain metal
parts, such as a belt, footwear with metal reinforcing, etc., and that you have no
metal objects in your pockets.
NOTICE
Read through the whole chapter before commencing calibration.
